![]() This was my second entry in FAC #11: Mythical Battle Beasts: Tiamat! The Tiamat heads are inspired by dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures. I based the armor on large construction vehicles to give it a massive look. For scale purposes and to add a bit of drama, I included Muscleman as the protagonist. As you can see, Muscleman obtained the legendary sword of Pirate Lion, which is the only weapon that can destroy Tiamat! ![]() FAC #11 was about depicting mythological creatures as Battle Beasts. I chose good ol' Sasquatch as my subject. This was my first try with colored pencils, but I think I managed to get some cool effects (with the help of my wife). ![]() The theme of FAC #10 was to depict a LRG line as kids. So I chose Army Ants... but before they were Army Ants, they were Army Larvae! To up the kid-factor, I used construction paper as the media. ![]() This was my second entry for the "Reanimated" Fan Art Challenge #9. I wanted to do something with the cartoon aspect of this contest, so I did a Family Guy inspired theme. Media: Sharpee, Micropen, and crayon. ![]() Fan Art Challenge #9 had a "Reanimated" theme, so I did this picture of a Zombie Ram Battle Beast. The media are india ink, Sharpee, and Micropen. ![]() This watercolor painting was for LRG Fan Art Challenge #8, which had a Claw theme! I did this portrait of the Claw Family (clockwise from top-left): Grampa Claw, Daddy Claw, Mommy Claw, Teen-angst Claw, and Bratty Claw. ![]() The theme of LRG Fan Art Challenge #7 was Battle Beasts, so I chose to depict one of my favorite beasts: Sledgehammer Elephant! The media are Sharpee, MicroPen, and crayon. ![]() This was my second entry for the LRG Fan Art Challenge #6 that had a Buffaloman theme. I also did a version with the Terri-Bull color scheme from classic MUSCLE packaging. ![]() LRG Fan Art Challenge #6 had a Buffaloman/Terri-Bull theme, and this was my entry. It's dimensions are 18x24 inches. I decided to not color this one and keep it in black and white. I really liked its dramatic look after inking it, and I just didn't have the heart to color it. Sharp-eyed Batman/Superman fans will notice that it was inspired by a shot from Batman/Superman #29. ![]() The theme of LRG Fan Art Challenge #4 was to depict a character from the MCW. Of course, I couldn't resist showing the most infamous MCW member of all: Nasty Naked Lester! Don't worry, the shot here is censored, so you won't see any nastiness... although you'll likely still feel a good deal of revulsion. Lester here was directly inspired by Michaelangelo's David. The media are ink (namely, Sharpee) and crayon. ![]() Here I decided to paint my fantasy MUSCLE 4-pack that includes my favorite figures. (Of course, Tortle and the Urinal Guy were never available in 4-packs, so it's not entirely accurate.) The painting is done in watercolor, with ink (read: Sharpee) detailing. Check out this size comparison with a real MUSCLE 4-pack. ![]() Fan Art Challenge #3 was to design an original character that could fit in with the MUSCLE or Battle Beast line. My idea was this T-Rex Battle Beast, which would be part of a line of skeletal beasts called "Battle Beasts: Extinction"! Also, check out the progression image (500K). ![]() This was another entry for a Little Rubber Guys contest, a watercolor painting with ink details (18" x 24"). Check out the other entries, all of which rock! ![]() This was designed for a Fan Art Contest at LittleRubberGuys.com. The challenge was to integrate MUSCLEs and Battle Beasts. This is Battle Tortle! And for an animated gif of the progression of the image, click here (300K). ![]() MUSCLE vs. Battle Beasts Part 1! I made this and the next graphic for BEASTS versus MUSCLE, Battle Art Challenge II thread at Beastformers.com. |
